  1. Ai, the old question. On the Wild dogs forum, the okes there have been asking this question for ages. Seems to be an opinion that Van Beveren rode a bike which wasn't like this and now nobody knows if or when it's coming out.
  2. Lexx, Sorry I can't help but 2 things: 1. Are you sure it won't work like that? 2. The wilddogs portal is full of okes who could give you advice about that. You a member? You have to join but it's free and useful. http://www.wilddog.za.net/forum/index.php
  3. Our entire air force. And their budget for a year.
  4. Exotic bikes those. Couple of mates of mine had a Zundapp and a Kreidler. they raced down the Blue route lying flat on the seat and tank with legs out the back. I think they got up to about 100km/h. would that be right? Ai, those were the days. When you were to young and dumb to care about consequences, haha
  5. Wannabe, Hats off to you. That's a proper adventure. Must have been a fantastic trip and a lifelong memory.
  6. I've just reread my post and see it appears that the bike for sale is mine. It's not. I just posted it as it's in Cape Town and would be easier to view. and, of course, cheaper wrt transport costs. But then, of course, that road trip to get to know your bike is always the one you remember..
  7. Hairy, http://www.wilddog.za.net/forum/index.php?topic=233878.0 I am emigrating so my 1150GS is for sale. 2001 model with 114000 km. Comes with Trax panniers, bmw topbox, tank bag & spots. Good running & mechanical condition. Looking for R42000. Neg (slightly). I'm in Blouberg. Greg - 0712061
  8. And Hairy, if you want to talk detail about that model, talk to Chris at Flying Brick in Paarden Eiland. He has one and I'm sure he would be happy to chat about the model.
  9. Hairy, That's a discontinued model and was replaced by the 1200. It has a strong following but you must bear in mind its age. Air-cooled, no ABS or electronics etc. Still a BMW and sold bike but just remember its age and limitations. Having said that, I must say it looks to be in good nick and if properly maintained, should give many happy kms.
  10. Possible future classic and collectors' item then?
  11. I read that. Was just positing the question to show how illogical and unfair the situation would have been.
  12. True but it makes no sense for an adult to be responsible for a sibling's behaviour just because of birth status. What if it imperils the financial status of the person held responsible? Why are the children's interests more important than the sibling's interests? Neither brought about the situation. As someone has posted, what if this were carried over to criminal situations? Say my brother murders someone. Can I then be liable for support of his dependents? Seems very harsh.
  13. I note also with a great sense of relief that it also relates specifically to children and not spouses. Steven Knoetze, did your fiance's ex act on that advice? If so, what happened?
  14. Geez, if I end of having to pay maintenance for my brother's wife, he's going to be in a heap of trouble. Pain too.
  15. What do you mean ? You mean if it's still to be finalised, siblings can be made responsible?
  16. "Take note that your ex can now claim money's from your immediate family if she so chooses. If you can't pay that is." Whaaaat! My brother is busy getting divorced. and is broke. Are you sure about this? Time to plan.
  17. Haha, I knew that. Just taking the p..
  18. Ja, it's when your front brake is on the rear that your problems begin. And if your rear brake is on your front, well, .......
  19. If you click on this link and go to Satellite view and zoom in, you can still see it.. https://www.google.com/maps/place/Pelican+16/@22.6306126,-13.2374901,3998m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m13!1m7!3m6!1s0x0:0x0!2zMjLCsDM3JzU4LjUiTiAxM8KwMTQnMTQuMyJX!3b1!8m2!3d22.632906!4d-13.237302!3m4!1s0xc28689bd881d1cd:0x8c90b01f66c5d1bf!8m2!3d22.6306126!4d-13.2374901
  20. Quick question for discussion: Do you think that riding a mountain bike (for those of you that do) helps on a dual sport motorbike when off-road? In particular with factors such as reflexes, balance, body posture. Or do you think it is in fact a disadvantage?
  21. I use my phone as a router and connect to it by wireless. I want to install a VPN on it , since - as far as I know - the VPN is installed on the router. I would like to use ExpressVPN. does anybody here have experience of installing a VPN on a phone? Cheers
  22. Now that's nice bike.. Methinks, though, that Hairy is a coffee shop cruiser kinda guy and sold on a Harley.
  23. For Hairy: Helping my brother-in-law Has a HD 883 Iron with 18697km 2015 Model but 2016 Spec Got Screaming Eagles, otherwise standard and in excellent condition. Bike in JHB but can organise to get in to CPT His looking at R89000
  24. Nee man Hairy, where is this going?
  25. That carbon job in the box up on the shelf?
